Thinking about a date when Boss switched to plastic card insulation.
What is the latest serial number you have or have seen that has the insulation paper?
My pedals with paper insulation:
SP-1 sn 7600
PH-1 sn 7000

8200 (PH-1) is the last one I have with the cardboard sheet.
9700 (BF-2) is the earliest pedal I have with the plastic sheet. |

DS-1 # 9200

lightburst, thats the latest s/n with cardboard insulation so far.
I didnt know it remained that long. It will be interesting to see if any later serials gets reported in.

Looks like it's narrowed down to 9000-9200.
Does anyone have a pedal with serial 9100? |

reading the service notes, dec 26, 1980, for the ds-1, the info applies to series 9000 pedals, which coincides with 1980, which may have been a time of some wholesale changes, ie. introduce black screw, plastic insulation, and those old screws and deteroratable cardboard liners were updated. i dunno.
